USE CASE
Advice on AML software packages

Context

In a tightly regulated industry, employing the most effective tool to combat money laundering is essential to prevent any errors. A bank identified limitations in the current anti-money laundering (AML) tool's functionality and sought alternatives in the Belgian market that offer enhanced capabilities and operational support. To gain insight into the AML software landscape within the Benelux region, the bank commissioned a report detailing the solutions utilized by other financial institutions for regulatory compliance. DynaFin offered its assistance by conducting a Market Analysis on the prevalent AML software packages in the BeNeLux markets. 

DynaFin's Strategic Intervention

The intervention of DynaFin involved conducting a comprehensive market study to identify all software packages utilized by financial institutions in the BeNeLux region to support key financial security processes, including Customer Due Diligence (CDD), Know Your Customer (KYC), Anti-Money Laundering (AML) transaction monitoring, watchlist screening, sanction lists management, adverse media monitoring, and identification of politically exposed persons (PEPs). The consulting firm meticulously listed and categorized these software packages based on their functionalities and capabilities relevant to four key areas: 

Data Aggregation

The ability of the software to collect and consolidate data from various sources, ensuring comprehensive coverage for AML and CDD processes.

Continuous Detection & Prevention

The capacity to continuously monitor transactions and customer activities in real-time, enabling timely detection and prevention of suspicious activities or transactions.

Investigation & Risk Management

The tools and features available for investigating alerts, conducting risk assessments, and managing cases related to potential money laundering or financial crimes.

Command, Control & Reporting

The system's capabilities for managing AML operations, overseeing compliance activities, and generating comprehensive reports for regulatory purposes and internal audits.

DynaFin then compared these software packages across these four key capabilities to provide the bank with a detailed assessment of the available options in the market.

outcome

As an outcome of the intervention, the bank received a high-quality market overview of the AML software landscape, detailing the features, functionalities, and strengths of each identified software provider. Equipped with this information, the bank made an informed decision to proceed with launching a Request for Proposal (RFP) to five of the software providers identified through the market study. This strategic move reflects the bank's commitment to selecting the most suitable AML software solution that aligns with its operational requirements, regulatory obligations, and long-term strategic objectives. By leveraging the insights provided by DynaFin, the bank is poised to enhance its financial security measures and strengthen its compliance with AML regulations.

USE CASE
Supporting a credit institution in enhancing customer experience

Context

As part of an operational efficiency initiative, a credit institution sought to automate and digitize its entire loan origination processes. The institution sought an external solution to achieve its goals of enhancing customer experience while reducing costs and has leverage on DynaFin’s expertise in technology solutions selection and integration. 

DynaFin's Strategic Intervention

DynaFin’s intervention encompassed the several critical stages of the project, starting with the solution design and the external provider selection: 

Solution Design

Our consultants collaborated closely with the credit institution to understand its specific requirements, objectives, and constraints regarding loan origination processes. Based on this understanding, the DynaFin lead the solution design phase, identifying key functionalities, system integrations, and technology requirements.

Evaluate available solutions

Our consultants evaluated potential technology providers and solutions available in the market. This involves assessing factors such as vendor reputation, product capabilities, scalability, integration capabilities, compliance with industry standards and regulations, and total cost of ownership.

Provider selection

Through a comprehensive evaluation process, including vendor demonstrations, RFP (Request for Proposal) responses, and reference checks, the consulting firm would facilitate the selection of the most suitable provider(s) that align with the financial institution's needs and strategic objectives.

With the provider selected, our experts proceed to reengineer the loan origination processes to optimize efficiency, minimize manual interventions, and maximize straight-through processing (STP) ratios. This includes redesigning workflows, streamlining decision-making processes, defining clear roles and responsibilities, and implementing automation rules and algorithms to expedite loan approvals and disbursements.

Finally, our consultant overseed the end-to-end implementation and the testing of the chosen technology solution, before supporting the financial institution in rolling out the new automated loan origination processes across relevant departments.

outcome

As a result of the consulting firm's intervention, the credit institution successfully implemented a fully paperless loan origination process, leveraging APIs to maximize straight-through processing (STP) ratios. 

 

This digital transformation enabled significant cost savings by reducing manual effort, streamlining workflows, and minimizing errors and delays associated with traditional paper-based processes. 

 

Moreover, the automated processes laid the foundation for further digital evolutions, enhancing agility, scalability, and customer experience in the increasingly competitive lending landscape.
